I realize that the pics are taken while the coin is in a holder, so I can't tell if the marks I see are rim-dings, or marks on the holder ...

IMO its not UNC closer to the better end of gEF to aUNC. The rim nicks really bring it down and its lost quite a bit of lustre. Still a very nice coin though. Id be happy to pay up to $100 for it.

Way too high IMO. The photos may be letting it down a bit. If I was trying to sell a coin for $250 id take it out of the 20c 2x2 for a photo thats for sure. Maybe they have left it in there to try and hide those nasty rim nicks? I dont think PCGS would grade it with those would they?
